Deputy press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders filled in for Sean Spicer again Thursday, and responded to questions about the administration’s controversial dismissal of FBI director James Comey by lecturing reporters on their coverage.

Faced with a barrage of questioning concerning the White House’s timeline for firing Comey, as well as the ever-changing explanation as to why the FBI director was dismissed, Sanders said: “I think instead of getting so lost in the process — did this happen at 12:01 or 12:02, did he fire him because he wore a red tie or a blue tie — he fired him because he was not fit to do the job. It’s that simple.”

When Comey’s dismissal was first announced, spokespeople for the administration pinned the decision on a memo written by deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein blasting Comey for his handling of the Hillary Clinton email investigation.

This explanation for why President Donald Trump — who has repeatedly praised Comey for going after Clinton — would fire the FBI director obviously did not stand up to much scrutiny.
